Tomaszk Posted February 12, 2022 Share Posted February 12, 2022 I think Grealish reaching the level he did has people outside of Villa pumping him up a bit more than he quite deserves right now. No problem with Villa fans getting excited about a player really though. Head down JJ. Keep working son. Getting comfortable in front of goal is an incredible trait to bring into his game. That second finish against Leeds was sumptuous. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
MWARLEY2 Posted February 12, 2022 Share Posted February 12, 2022 I wonder if we could convert him into a striker. Only kidding . Carry on Jacob. I think with him there will not be the off field issues that surrounded Jack. He comes from good Great Barr stock with a dad that knows about sacrifice to try and be the best.. as Ferdinand said imagine what he is going to be like in 2 or 3 years. I just hope we as a team can start progressing up the league as quick as he is developing so we do not have the same situation happening again.

KAZZAM Posted February 12, 2022 Share Posted February 12, 2022 We need to be prepping a new long term contract. I wouldn't offer it quite yet but if he keeps performing in the next 5 games or so then that would be the time. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It’s not so black and white with youngsters. He was improving all the time whilst showing flashes of brilliance which showed once he had the physical attributes and the tactical awareness he could become a top player. The question should have been did he look out of place? Answer is No. (imo). If He continues to show the drive and discipline of Steven Gerrard did in his career JJ will be a world class player in 3/4 seasons time. 1 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
theboyangel Posted February 12, 2022 Share Posted February 12, 2022 Expect him to sign a new, improved contract by the end of the season. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Hank Scorpio Posted February 12, 2022 Share Posted February 12, 2022 He is improving month on month. He is very consistent for someone so young he doesn't have many truly bad games. Let's just hope he doesn't get called up and get his head turned by the sky 6 rocket polishers as usual. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

jacketspuds Posted February 12, 2022 Share Posted February 12, 2022 Ramsey is the only one of our starting CM’s that I wouldn’t think about upgrading in the summer. His performances are getting better and better, and he is putting more experienced pro’s in his position to shame. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Made In Aston Posted February 12, 2022 Share Posted February 12, 2022 The thing I didn't realise about Ramsey before the Leeds game was how good he was in front of goal. Cold as ice and clinical. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Show me a post when anyone predicted he would be this good? He was really poor last year so him benfiting from a loan is not showing "impatience" its saying he would benefit from a loan. So people are showing an impatience with barry JPB and all the other kids out on loan yhen The Barry thread is literally full of people saying “this lad won’t make it in the PL” in a very similar way, correct.

If you compare him to Gallagher, another young nr 8, Gallagher does a lot more work all over the pitch. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I’ve wondered if his forward play is shining so much because he’s been absolved of all defensive duties. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Cold as ice and clinical. Such is the rapid speed of his development, I think 10 or 15 games back he wouldn't have been that confident in front of goal. The pace in which he has become so good is frightening. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
